India won the three-match ODI series against West Indies 2-1 in October 2026, taking the first two matches before losing the third. The series produced some outstanding batting performances from both sides.

In a series that was thoroughly dominated by the batters, several of them stood out for their six-hitting ability across the three games. Here is a look at the three players who hit the most sixes in the IND vs WI ODI series 2026.

Here are 3 batters with the most sixes in the IND vs WI ODI series:

3. Shubman Gill (9 sixes)

India captain Shubman Gill ended as the third-highest six-hitter with 9 sixes in total. He hit one six during his 110 in the 1st ODI at Thiruvananthapuram before producing a historic knock in the 2nd ODI at Guwahati on September 30, 2026. Gill scored an unbeaten 223 off 133 balls, hitting 8 sixes in that innings, as India completed the second-highest run-chase in ODIs, reaching a total of 406 with relative ease.

His 223 not out was the highest score in an ODI chase and the quickest double century in ODI history. Gill was also the top run-scorer of the series, finishing with 334 runs in total. His nine sixes across the series placed him third on this list, behind Kohli and Rohit.

2. Virat Kohli (10 sixes)

The talismanic Virat Kohli finished the series with 10 sixes, the second-highest tally among all players. His most destructive display came in the 1st ODI at Thiruvananthapuram, where he scored an unbeaten 139 off 88 balls, hitting 9 sixes and 10 fours. That innings included a notable moment as Kohli brought up his record-extending 55th ODI hundred with a six.

The 9 sixes in that innings was also his highest count in a single ODI innings. He added 1 more six in the 2nd ODI at Guwahati to take his series total to 10. He was unable to contribute in the third ODI, being dismissed for a first-ball duck, but his exploits from the first game puts him on the podium.

1. Rohit Sharma (12 sixes)

The mercurial Rohit Sharma was the biggest six-hitter of the series, finishing with 12 sixes across two matches. He struck 3 sixes in the 1st ODI at Greenfield Stadium, Thiruvananthapuram, on September 27, 2026, as India chased down 295 with ease, winning by 8 wickets.

Rohit then followed that up with a century in the 2nd ODI at Guwahati on September 30, 2026, during which he hit 6 more sixes. India again won by 8 wickets in that match, successfully chasing 406 in 43.3 overs. His combined tally of 12 sixes across the two games made him the leading six-hitter of the series.

The West Indies tour of India 2026 featured a three-match ODI series that India won 2-1. The hosts claimed the first two matches convincingly before West Indies pulled one back in the final game at New Chandigarh.

The series was characterised by dominant batting displays, with bowlers generally finding conditions difficult. Despite that, a handful of bowlers stood out across the three matches and made a genuine impact for their respective sides.

1. Kuldeep Yadav

Kuldeep Yadav finished as the highest wicket-taker of the series, claiming 7 wickets across three innings at a series average of 23.85. His most influential contribution came in the 1st ODI at Thiruvananthapuram on September 27, 2026, where he returned figures of 4 wickets for 40 runs in 10 overs. That performance earned him a Player of the Match award in a match India won by 8 wickets with 50 balls remaining.

Kuldeep’s series tally of 7 wickets placed him well clear of every other bowler in the contest. His consistent returns across all three innings underlined his value to the Indian side, particularly in a series where most bowlers struggled to contain batters in full flow.

2. Jayden Seales

Jayden Seales was the standout bowler for West Indies in the series, finishing as the second-highest wicket-taker with 4 wickets across three innings at a series average of 43.00. The right-arm fast-medium bowler managed 1 wicket in the 1st ODI before delivering his best performance in the 3rd ODI at New Chandigarh, where he took 3 wickets for 62 runs.

In that final match, Seales removed both Virat Kohli and Shubman Gill during the powerplay, two dismissals that proved crucial as West Indies went on to win by 5 wickets with 10 balls remaining. His ability to take top-order wickets in a series dominated by batters made him a notable performer for his side.

3. Prasidh Krishna

Prasidh Krishna took 3 wickets across 2 innings in the series at an average of 35.00 and an economy rate of 7.00. He had been on an injury layoff prior to this series, making his returns a point of interest for the Indian team management. In the 1st ODI at Thiruvananthapuram on September 27, 2026, he claimed 2 wickets for 60 runs in 10 overs.

Krishna’s series tally of 3 wickets placed him joint-third among all bowlers in the contest. He did not bowl in one of the three matches, with his wickets spread across two innings. His return to action after injury and his contribution in a batting-heavy series made him one of the notable bowling names from India’s campaign.

The Asian Games 2026 men’s cricket tournament was held in T20 format at Korogi Park Athletic Stadium in Aichi-Nagoya, running from September 24 to October 3, 2026. Ten nations took part, making it cricket’s fourth appearance at the Asian Games after Guangzhou 2010, Incheon 2014, and Hangzhou 2023.

India claimed the gold medal by beating Pakistan by 19 runs in the final on October 3, 2026, posting 211/6 and restricting Pakistan to 192/6. Sri Lanka won bronze on the same day, defeating Bangladesh by 63 runs. Amid the action, three batters rose above the rest with the bat across the tournament.

3. Sundeep Jora (Nepal)

Sundeep Jora of Nepal finished third among the tournament’s run-scorers with 91 runs in two innings at an average of 91.00. The right-handed batter, born October 20, 2001, in Mahendranagar, Kanchanpur, accumulated his runs at a strike rate of 135.82 across the two innings. One of his standout contributions was an unbeaten 57 off 32 balls against Japan, an innings that included four fours and three sixes at a strike rate of 178.12. Jora’s performances underlined Nepal’s growing presence in Asian cricket and showed that the so-called smaller nations in the tournament were capable of producing individual batting displays of genuine quality.

2. Ishan Kishan (India)

Ishan Kishan finished second on the run-scoring charts with 100 runs in two innings at an average of 100.00. The left-handed wicketkeeper-batter from Patna, Bihar, born July 18, 1998, was sent in at No. 5 in the semi-final against Sri Lanka, a departure from his usual position of No. 3. He responded with an unbeaten 80 off 46 balls as India posted 169/7 and then dismissed Sri Lanka for just 45, winning by 124 runs. In the final, Kishan added 20 before being dismissed as Pakistan’s bowlers fought back. He would be very pleased with his contribution, especially under tough batting conditions in the semi-final.

1. Hasan Nawaz (Pakistan)

Hasan Nawaz finished as the tournament’s leading run-scorer with 123 runs across two innings at an average of 123.00. The Pakistan middle-order batter was at his best in the final against India, scoring 96 off 51 balls in a knock described as valiant. Pakistan, chasing 212, fell short at 192/6. Nawaz had earlier scored an unbeaten 27 off 22 balls against Bangladesh in the semi-final, a match that was affected by rain. His ability to perform under pressure in both games made him the standout batter of the tournament, even though his side could not secure the gold medal.
